Report I2011-1: Investigations of Improper Activities by State Agencies and Employees: Waste of State Funds, Misuse of State Resources, Falsification of Records, Inexcusable Neglect of Duty, Failure to Monitor Time Reporting, and Other Violations of State Law (Release Date: August 2011)

Case Number I2009-1476

Recommendation #17 To: Controller's Office, State

Take appropriate disciplinary action against the supervisor.

Agency Response From June 2011

The State Controller's Office reported that management representatives counseled the supervisor because it acknowledged that he was responsible for monitoring the employee's time and that he provided insufficient oversight. In addition, its chief of human resources provided the supervisor with additional training on proper time-reporting and related supervisory requirements. The State Controller's Office also reported that because the supervisor's busy schedule did not allow him to monitor adequately his support staff's time, his staff was placed under the direct supervision of an office manager effective August 2010.
